    Why am I not surprised.

    But, I think you can correct the clutch problem in time.

    It should be. But while it is out, Im going to try and correct my driveline angle by reconstructing my trans-mount. I get a nasty vibration at about 120mph... HA HA... JK unfortunately its at 75mph. :cry: Also if it works out, I can correct my steering rack mount as well which will require a trip to the alignment shop. :(
    Im hoping someone will come thru with a dropped spindle solution before then so that only one trip to the alignment shop will be warranted. Wheres that :crossed-fingers: smiley?

    Yes, it would be nice to get a head count!

    I'll be there. :D (Even booked a motel room up there for the night before).

    I will pop in for a few minutes. I will be transporting a cake for my son's graduation party. Can't leave it in the car too long. Most of you should already be there by the time I get there.. Probobly be around noon.. Hope I can get in and out easily or I might have to keep going. :(
